The ultimate aim of Family Time is to encourage families to be united together, where they as individuals share a common vision, hold common values and have a common purpose. It aims to strengthen the family ties of all those who do the course and provide for people a model or framework from which they can create for themselves a rhythm for family life that allows for reflection, relaxation and adventure together. It is a 10-session course on family life and parenting children, which is ideal for use in either your local church or your local school or anywhere else where you have a community of parents with young children. It is largely aimed at those with children under 12, although much of the material is relevant to those with older children too.

It is ideal for those with small children who are on the fringes of church but not yet ready for Alpha or for those in the church asking questions about parenting.
